I'd be booking the car in for warranty work to remove it

Ads are designed to capture your attention. To do this to someone when they're driving is surely a safety issue to drivers, other cars, and anyone else.

The car is the ONE place where I can escape ads, unless I listen to a radio, which I rarely do because of the ads. This is so many levels of fucked up.

They don't want you to find the analog AI super computer they built in the 60's that made em write the warning "A COMPUTER CAN NEVER BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE, THEREFORE A COMPUTER MUST NEVER MAKE A MANAGEMENT DECISION", in all caps like that.

Did they also realize they need a union

Unions for tech so we have a political voice to modulate technology in favor of humanity is probably one of the most important functions() a technology union could have.

reducing government corruption

Reducing any corruption, for it is the anathema of civilization. I wonder how many pro-freedom initiatives could be had if we all weren't so Pwned.

How so?

A person can be sane and immoral, sane and moral, insane and immoral or insane and moral. "Orthogonal" is perhaps a little too strong, since it implies the absence of any relationship,

I've considered your statement. I can see where insanity and morality are orthogonal but I cannot see a situation where a sane person would do something immoral if they have a choice of other options, to do so would be not be sane. If a sane person is forced into a situation where they do something immoral, that is no longer a question of morality, it is a question of coercion. A sane person cares about consequences to others and an insane person does not.

but certainly all the combinations are possible.

I'm not being a dick here. I'm wondering if you have thought about this position enough to back it up with a rational argument. I have given you the first example of how to define morality as an objective reality. I can offer you a way to test your statement as a thought exercise.

If a generally moral person does a immoral thing are they a immoral person? If a generally immoral person does a moral thing are they a moral person? What is the differences between them?

I'm genuinely curious about your statements and perspective.
